The Pro-Talks Faction of National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB-PTF) on September 3 accused both Assam Government and Central Government of being soft on the illegal influx issue for the sake of votes.

Sungthagwra stated that the Centre was making a deliberate attempt to keep the talks confined to the bureaucratic level and added that the NDFB-PTF had already objected to this approach. Sungthagwra further said, “We demand holding of the ongoing dialogue at a political level and the government should appoint one more interlocutor, who has a political background and has sound knowledge about the history of the Bodo people and also the rights for which we have been struggling since many decades”.

On October 4, unidentified militants shot at and snatched away Carbine belonging to Assam Police personnel of the 19th battalion deployed at Ambikagiri Border Outpost (BOP) along Assam-Arunachal Pradesh border, at Sadiya in Tinsukia District, reports Deccan Herald. Two of the policemen sustained bullet injuries on their legs. Ruling out the possibility of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) being behind the incident as "they are not known for snatching away carbines", the Police suspected Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) to be involved in the incident as Maoists had a presence in the area bordering Lower Dibang District of Arunachal Pradesh.

Assam Power Minister Pradyut Bordoloi said the state government has proof that Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) is trying to gain foothold in the Northeast by trying to organise protests against Hydel Power Projects, reports Economic Times. Bordoloi on October 7 said, "Opposing mega power projects and gaining foothold among people is the new modus operandi of Left-wing extremism. We have evidence to substantiate that Maoists are looking to make inroads in Sadiya area of the Tinsukia District". An officer with one of the intelligence agencies said the growing presence of Naxals [Left Wing Extremists] in the Tinsukia District, a stronghold of the Anti-Talks faction of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-ATF) and adjoining District of Arunachal Pradesh was a security concern. Maoists have initiated a recruitment drive in the area and are targeting the youth of the area. Bordoloi further said, "To counter Maoist influence, we are initiating developmental measures. We will install transmission line along the Dholla-Sadiya Bridge. This bridge over river Brahmaputra will cut down the traveling time between Assam and Arunachal Pradesh".

Anti-Talks faction of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-ATF) in an email statement stated that as the Central government for long has been taking advantage of the discord among various outfits of the region. Way back in 1985, ULFA had proposed to Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-IM) ‘General Secretary’ Thuinglang Muivah to initiate a unity move among the outfits, as the government would try to play the divisive game and create fratricidal killings. Had the unity move taken place then, the movement for sovereignty in the northeastern states would have been at a different stage today.

Joint secretary (North East) of the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), Sambhu Singh said that the Union Home Secretary is likely to hold talks with the leaders of the Pro-Talks Faction of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-PTF) on October 25 to review the situation after the signing of the cease-fire agreement, reports The Assam Tribune. Singh said that the ULFA leaders are expected to submit the list of its cadres shortly and the scheduled meeting would also discuss as to how the talks should progress. After the meeting, the Centre's interlocutor PC Haldar would take over and talks on the demands of the ULFA would start, he added. Shambhu Singh said that the Government of India is planning to sign peace pacts with at least three militant outfits of the State by November. He said that the process of talks with the United People's Democratic Solidarity (UPDS) is complete and only the date for signing of the accord is to be decided. He pointed out that the Government was trying to make the Karbi Longri North Cachar Hills Liberation Front (KLNLF) to sign the same pact, which delayed the process of signing of the pact with the UPDS. But the KLNLF could not make up its mind and the Government would not go ahead with the signing of the accord with UPDS, he added. He also said that talks with both factions of Dima Halim Daogah [DHD-Jewel & DHD-Nunisa] are in final stage and accords with the outfits are likely to be signed soon. On the progress of talks with the Pro-Talks faction of National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB-PTF), Singh said that the outfit is still sticking to its demand for creation of a separate state and the Centre has already made it clear that there is no possibility of division of Assam.

The Anti-Talks Faction of ULFA (ULFA-ATF) demanded an explanation from Pro-Talks Faction of ULFA (ULFA-PTF) ‘chairman’ Arabinda Rajkhowa regarding his recent commitment to ailing singer Bhupen Hazarika in Mumbai that a “pact” on the vexed Assam issue would be signed with the Centre by next year, reports The Telegraph. ULFA-ATF ‘central publicity chief ‘Arunodoi Dohotia said, “After so many pacts involving the Northeast and Jammu and Kashmir turning out to be worth naught in the past, ULFA does not believe in any more treaties. Neither can independence be any kind of a pact. It is not for a pact or treaty that ULFA has waged a rebellion for the last 32 years, during which over 13,000 people laid down their lives.” Further Dohotia said, “It appears that Rajkhowa, who is on bail, is adopting an initiative towards a compromise and ULFA is not party to it. After so many sacrifices, ULFA cannot afford to let down people’s expectations, The All Assam Students Union (AASU) and the Assam Jatiyatabadi Yuva Chatra Parishad (AJYCP) have been fighting for the state’s problems from a time when ULFA was not born and now an individual, Akhil Gogoi, is taking over the reins to fight for the cause of the state. But they have always been taking up their demands with the Centre. ULFA was not born to take up Assam’s issues with the Indian government. A pact with the Centre will defeat the very purpose of raising the outfit which we will never approve of.”

The Telegraph reports that Security Forces (SFs) arrested one cadre of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) on October 14 from Sadiya in Tinsukia District along the Assam-Arunachal Pradesh border. With this, at least 18 Maoist rebels were arrested in Tinsukia District alone in the past month which has triggered speculation among SFs that the Leftist rebel group is trying to fill the void created by United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) in Upper Assam. “What is worrying is that most of these arrested persons are ethnic Assamese youths. A few of them have received training in Jharkhand and Manipur,” a senior Police officer said. The officer said at least five youths who were arrested had received training in Jharkhand and two were trained by the Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) in Manipur.

Pro-Talks Faction of ULFA (ULFA-PTF) has deposited its weapons ahead of the peace negotiations scheduled for October 25, reports The Times of India. However, the faction has deposited just 57 assorted weapons, a number believed to be far smaller than the outfit's actual arsenal. Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi in this regard said said, "Initially, there was some objection from ULFA leaders to depositing the weapons, but the government has convinced them to do so. It is a uniform policy followed with all outfits that before talks start they should deposit their weapons, stay in designated camps and not resort to any extortion." Gogoi said the first round of talks between ULFA and the Centre, since the tripartite ceasefire agreement was signed last month, will be held in New Delhi on October 25. A memorandum of settlement would also be signed with the United People's Democratic Solidarity (UPDS), another militant outfit of the state, on October 24 in New Delhi. Giving details of the deposit of weapons with the Centre, State Home Secretary G D Tripathi said, "They have so far deposited 57 weapons but they might still have some weapons with them. We will be getting the rest of the arms as well." Tripathi further said, "They are under a double-lock safe custody, with keys to one lock with the local police officer and the other with the ULFA leader. Very soon, we will be shifting these weapons to the camps where the ULFA cadres will be staying while the peace talks proceed." On the issue of designated ceasefire camps home secretary Tripathi said, "There will be nine such camps in the state and the camp at Goalpara is ready to be handed over to the cadres. When the cadres of that area move into the camp, we can shift the deposited weapons there." The home secretary said that the ULFA-PTF cadres would have to stay in designated camps, which they want to be named as Assam Naba Nirman Kendra. The home secretary said the Rajkhowa faction has also submitted a list of the cadres of the ULFA-PTF who number 297.
